What will happen to the period of a ball-on-a-spring if the ball is replaced by a smaller one with half the mass

Physics

When the ball on a spring is replaced by a smaller ball with half the mass :  The period decrease by 29%

<h3>Calculate the Period </h3>

We will apply the formula below to calculate period

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k } }

 where :

T₁ / T₂ = \sqrt{\frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} } }    where m₂ = m₁ / 2

Therefore :

T₂ = \frac{T_{1} }{\sqrt{2} }   = 0.71 T

Hence we can conclude that the period will decrease by 29% ( i.e 100 - 71 ).

How would you change the distance between two charged particles to increase the electric force between them by a factor of 16
Naily [24]

The electrostatic force between two charges is inversely
proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if you want to multiply the force by, say, ' Q ',
you need to multiply the distance by  ( 1 / √Q ) .

We want to multiply the force by 16, so we need to
multiply the distance by    ( 1 / √16 )  =  ( 1 / 4 ) .

The distance should be changed to  1/4  of what it is now.

Brut [27]

Answer:

0.5m/s2

Explanation:

acceleration= change in velocity/time taken

= v - u/ t

= 10-5/10

=5/10

= 0.5m/s2

What method has detected the most extrasolar planets so far?
Sedaia [141]
<h2>Answer: The Transit  method</h2>

Detecting extrasolar planets by direct observation (with a telescope) is a complicated task. This is because any planet constitutes an extremely dim light source compared to the star around which it orbits.

So, to detect this extremely dim source is quite difficult due to the glare of the star's light that dulls it.

In this sense, scientists and astronomers have made several methods to find these extrasolar planets, among which the most successful has been the transit method.

This method is based on <u>astronomical transit</u>, a phenomenon in which a body (a planet in this case) passes in front of a larger one (the star), blocking (eclipsing) its vision to some extent.

It should be noted that this is the method currently used in the search for extrasolar planets. Space agencies such as ESA (Europe) and NASA (USA) have put into orbit satellites with extremely sensitive photometric sensors to observe even the smallest variations of intensity of a star due to the passage of a planet.
